Transplantation of acute myeloid leukemia (AML) patients with grafts from related haploidentical donors has been shown to result in a potent graft-versus-leukemia effect. This effect is mediated by...

EVI1 overexpression in t(3;17) positive myeloid malignancies results from juxtaposition of EVI1 to the MSI2 locus at 17q22 (2008)

De Weer, An, Speleman, Franki, Cauwelier, Barbara, Van Roy, Nadine, Yigit, Nurten, Verhasselt, Bruno, ...

Chromosomal translocations involving the EVI1 locus are a recurrent finding in myeloid leukemia and are associated with poor prognosis. In this study, we performed a detailed molecular...

Evaluation of nutritional support in children undergoing haematopoietic stem cell transplantation: a single-centre experience (2008)

VAN LANCKER, SOPHIE, BORDON MARIA, VICTORIA, DE PORRE, JOHAN, De Moerloose, Barbara, VANDECRUYS, ELS, VERLOOY, JORIS, ...

Background: Nutrition is an important aspect in patients undergoing haematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT). Food intake and absorption is impaired due to nausea, mucositis, graft versus host...

Clinical, cytogenetic and molecular characteristics of 14 T-ALL patients carrying the TCRb-HOXA rearrangement : a study of the Groupe Francophone de Cytogénétique Hématologique (GFCH). (2007)

Cauwelier, B, Cavé, H, Gervais, C, Lessard, M, Barin, C, Perot, C, ...

Recently, we and others described a new chromosomal rearrangement, that is, inv( 7)( p15q34) and t( 7; 7)( p15; q34) involving the T-cell receptor beta ( TCR beta) ( 7q34) and the HOXA gene locus (...

Human fetal neuroblast and neuroblastoma transcriptome analysis confirms neuroblast origin and highlights neuroblastoma candidate genes (2006)

De Preter, Katleen, Vandesompele, Jo, Heimann, Pierre, Yigit, Nurten, Beckman, Siv, Schramm, Alexander, ...

Abstract Background Neuroblastoma tumor cells are assumed to originate from primitive neuroblasts giving rise to the sympathetic nervous system. Because these precursor cells are not detectable in...

Quality of Life in Children Surviving Cancer: A Personality and Multi-Informant Perspective (2004)

De Clercq, Barbara, De Fruyt, Filip, Koot, Hans M., Benoit, Yves

Objective To describe quality of life (QoL) of children surviving cancer in relation to their personality, using self- and maternal reports and examining differences with healthy referents. Method...

PARC/CCL18 is a plasma CC chemokine with increased levels in childhood acute lymphoblastic leukemia (2003)

Benoit, Yves, ...

Chemokines play an important role in leukocyte mobilization, hematopoiesis, and angiogenesis. Tissue-specific expression of particular chemokines also influences tumor growth and metastasis. Here,...

Outpatient and home parenteral antibiotic therapy (OHPAT) in low-risk febrile neutropenia: consensus statement of a Belgian panel. (2002)

Beguin, Yves, Benoit, Yves, Crokaert, F, Selleslag, Dominik, Vandercam, B

Febrile neutropenia requires adequate antibiotic treatment. A subgroup of patients are only at low risk for complications and could be treated at home/as outpatients (OHPAT) after a short initial...

Dresse, Marie-Françoise, Boogaerts, Marc, Vermylen, C, Noens, Lucien, Ferrant, A, Schots, Rik, ...

BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVE: We reviewed all unrelated donor bone marrow transplants (UDBMT) performed in Belgium up to December 1995 to identify prognostic factors for relapse, transplant-related...

Expression of the MDR1 gene product, P-glycoprotein, in childhood neuroblastoma (1997)

Dhooge, Catharina, De Moerloose, Barbara, Benoit, Yves, Van Roy, Nadine, Philippe, Jan, Laureys, Genevieve

BACKGROUND, In cancer treated with chemotherapy, multidrug resistance is characterized by increased genetic expression of P-glycoprotein (P-gp), which acts as an ATP-dependent drug-efflux pump....
